One of Cardiff City's former players has accused Malky Mackay of using racist language in front of the players during his time at the club.

The 22-year-old deleted a flurry of tweets detailing Mackay's conduct at Cardiff and said: "Malky Mackay is a racist wish the people at Cardiff City seen it sooner. To treat certain players how he did at Cardiff was disgusting."

The Football ­Association have launched an ­investigation after Cardiff sent a dossier about misconduct by Mackay and their former technical director Iain Moody, who resigned from his post at Crystal Palace on Thursday.
